Thank you Robert, you're spot on! Would this tree be a good container grower?

You're welcome! I've never grown one so I don't know. Looks like it gets pretty large so perhaps a large container would work. Hopefully someone who has grown it will chime in.

Its usual habit is a very large spreading shrub. The one in the picture has been intensively pruned to form a single trunk and rounded top. It is listed as an invasive species in many states of the USA.

So I've learned today...impressed by the intense fragrance of its flowers. The berries seem comestible, altough not from the tree in the picture, traffic flavour is not my favourite.

Would be nice in a container on a terrace, just for the fragrance:)

Indeed, but if it is as invasive as Floral mentioned, then one would be wise to consider the issue of birds eating the berries and thus enabling the plant to "escape" via seeds into the environment.

Good point Paul, I will stay with citrus trees & plumeria for now.

If you live in a climate where you can grow Plumeria and Citrus I wouldn’t waste space on something as boring as Eleagnus.
